There's only a short time to go (could we have longer than this in 
future, we could easily be travelling), and I wasn't on the call.
I can't agree to dismiss WHOIS problems because a registration that has 
demonstrably false WHOIS (eg "Mickey Mouse, Disneyland") must be 
indicative of some kind of abuse. It's also the case that some tlds have 
geographic qualifications (eg "Resident in country X") and a WHOIS 
indicating a different country would have to raise questions.
